Though this is an older book, it truly is a classic. This was more worthy of the Pulitzer than her book that won the award! It is no wonder this is required reading of high school students. The life it depicts is real and the language is so descriptive and poetic. Why did I not read this before? My education was sorely lacking in the classics.

I do love anything written by Lewis-this one has so many memorable quotes and is so thought provoking. I always feel like I have visited a higher plain after a C.S. Lewis read! “We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by offer of a holiday at the sea." “Meanwhile the cross comes before the crown and tomorrow is a Monday morning.”

This is one of the first books I read that I actually loved reading. Vonnegut's writing style deconstructs the novel format and completely rearranges it. It's a wonderful satire of working life, day-to-day minutia, married life, ego, and class (with a little bit of over-population criticism, since it's a Vonnegut book). Breakfast of Champions is one of my favorite books, and I recommend it to anyone.

It was good, but I don't think I'll continue the series. I had a really hard time sticking with it.

This book was ok. Eustace and her "friend" Jill go back into Narnia to save a prince from the wrath of The Green Lady (somewhat similar to the White Witch).

Barbery, Muriel. THE ELEGANCE OF THE HEDGEHOG. (France, 2006 – U.S., 2008). *****. This is the second novel from this author, though her first to be published in this country. It was an instant best-seller in France and other countries in Europe, where it is said to have sold over 1-million copies. It is a truly excellent book that will likely bomb in this country. Two of the people who live at 7, rue de Grenelle in Paris, a five-story apartment building, tell us their stories in almost alternating chapters. One, Mme. Renee, is a fiftyish concierge who manages to hide her intellectual nature beneath a rough exterior so that she doesn’t get involved with the moneyed people she serves. She is, in her words, “ugly and plump, and has bunions.” She is often cantankerous and lives alone with her can, Leo, to whom she bestows her only genuine attachment. She is addicted to soap operas, but usually leaves them on the TV with the sound off. She is an avid reader, and a particular fan of Tolstoy (after whom she named her cat). The other resident we hear from is Paloma. Paloma is 12-and-1/2-years old, and the youngest daughter of the Josses, the family who lives on the fifth floor. Paloma is an extremely talented young girl and very introspective. She is saddened by life as she sees it around her on a daily basis. Her mother has been going to a psychotherapist for ten years, and spends her time mostly shopping or spraying her house plants. Her older sister is a total fake and dresses and acts like one of the poor in spite of the family’s wealth. She is in college pursuing a Master’s degree, and writing her thesis on a topic that she couldn’t care less about. Paloma has decided that she will set their apartment on fire and commit suicide when she turns 13. Both Renee and Paloma tell us their stories in (almost) alternating chapters; Renee’s in the form of what might be classified as essays, and Paloma in the form of two separate notebooks that she keeps: “Profound Thoughts,” and “Journal of the Movement of the World.” We get to know these two women intimately, though no one else does – until they meet. The meeting is facilitated by Kakuro Ozu, a Japanese gentleman who has just purchased one of the apartments. He immediately sees through Renee’s facade and becomes one of her admirers. He, too, is a fan of Tolstoy and other Russian writers. It also doesn’t hurt that his last name, Ozu, is the same as Renee’s favorite Japanese film director. The friendship among these three builds, and all three begin to blossom in a way that can only happen when you find a soul-mate to be able to talk with and discuss your real interests. The book closes on what I felt was a maudlin ending, but is totally enthralling to the end. Highly recommended.

Such a clever story. It's about a boy named Nobody or "Bod", He grows up in a graveyard and is taken care of by ghosts. Bod learns special powers and he has some scary adventures. It's a quick fun interesting read it makes you think about life, death, how you treat others etc.

The author Stef Penney identifies herself as an agoraphobic screenwriter who lives in Edinburgh, yet she pulls off this amazing novel set in Canada in 1867. Amazing. She weaves many characters' lives together, so this is a book to read in a short span of time, not one to read a chapter here and there over a month or two. Part thriller, part mystery, part historic novel, laced with issues like drug addiction, madness, and personal identity, this author is able to deftly touch on many subjects. A very good read indeed!

Better than the movie. Which I also liked.
